From what I have seen of if so far it is defintely a book that is very daunting for the non mathematically minded. I have a mathematics and statistics degree - from a long time ago now and I am rusty, but even for someone like me I think it will need very careful reading and involve some relearning to grasp the equations. At the minute I'm still trying to work out the RoRU equation. I wish Chen had given some examples of it in this book [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
Early days yet as have only looked at a small bit of the book but I think an even slightly gentler introduiction and lengthier explanations and examples of formulas would have been a good idea. I get the impression that they have made the mistake of many intelligent math people of not adequately explaining the math assuming too readily that the reader is soaking it up, whereas in reality even people like me are having to do double takes to understand the stuff.
